China has displayed two turbofan engines with thrust vectoring control (TVC) nozzles during the Airshow China 2022 exhibition being held in Zhuhai from 8 to 13 November.

Imagery of the state-owned Aero Engine Corporation of China (AECC) pavilion from 9 November showed that six engines were on display. The state-owned newspaper, Global Times , reported on 10 November that five of the engines are part of the ‘Taihang‘ family.

This is the first public showing in China of engines with TVC nozzle systems. These engines were previously reported as being in development.

According to Janes data, the ‘Taihang‘, which is named after a mountain in China, is associated with the Liming Engine Manufacturing Corporation's WS10 two-shaft augmented turbofan engine.

Among the engines displayed was a 1:2 scale model of an engine with a two-dimensional (2D) TVC nozzle fitted to its aft section.
